Subsaharan African Poverty

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 507,618,351 people shows a significant positive correlation between the proportion of Sub-Saharan Africans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.675 and weighted average of 14.5%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Sub-Saharan Africans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.58% in poverty level.

It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Sub-Saharan Africans and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Sub-Saharan Africans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Sub-Saharan Africans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
